I think I have made it to the null Terminator, but it takes 30 seconds - 2 min to receive a response from the SC DTC server; when I send a baddly formed message after the login request it returns instantaneously. Can you please help me understand what I am missing. I am using Json response and I have the SC DTC server operating I think correctly, log attached at bottom.

Here is my sample socket code (package name removed), and I brought the messages into a String for simplicity.
